ah but remember Rich - exclusivity is rarely a sign of desirability.
I recall my old bosses response to an owner of a unique Ferrari who was extoling it's dubious virtues:
"ah yes, it's rare, but you must realise that if it was actually any good, they'd have had to make more of them!"
This didn't go down all that well I seem to recal, but at least we didn't have it cluttering up the place for years waiting for a buyer who'd never come.
but as to what you've bought - not another guessing game!

it actually doesnt have marina door handles!
ive bought a proper 'mk1' cox gtm
its a long term project and will go straight into storage, but with the value of early kit cars on the up i thought it was a worth while purchase
will take a pic later

lovely! but you should retro fit the door handles anyway.
i think Jamie (ceejam) has an early one too.
